Five weeks and three days post-op

I love these boobs! It's amazing to fill bra cups and to feel feminine. I took myself to the VS semi-annual sale and had lots of fun. Probably too much fun ;) My husband came with me and I he is actually liking these things now.
They are much softer and actual have a little bit of movement and jiggle to them. The scars are healing beautiful. I'm applying Mederma Advanced twice a day as suggested by Dr Yates. He also gave me an exercise to do that will help stretch the skin in the lower half of my left breast and let the implant drop. I've been fairly consistent with it.
My right breast still has some nerve pain on the sternum side in a line towards my nipple but it's slowly improving. It does make that nipple super sensitive so I hope it gets all the way better.

Almost 4 weeks and 32D is too big

I am really freaking out about my size. I was between 295cc and 345cc when I chose my implants. I went with 345cc. I was hoping to be a small c cup. I have always had a slender body but now I feel like I'm all breasts. They feel obscene or vulgar. I can't even wear the same kind of necklines I used to. I feel like I need to be in high necks and loose clothing and I sort of dread returning to yoga in sports bras and exercise tops. Please help me calm my anxiety. I can't afford a revision and really don't want to go through surgery again anyway. Really, I feel depressed and anxious and not sure what to do.

Two Week Boobiversary

I have felt better this past week and have been able to accomplish a lot as Christmas approaches. My boobs have decided to switch. The left which was original the sore and mostly bruised side seems to be healing and now I'm feeling a lot of pain in the right side. Some of it is internal but a lot of it is just my skin. Maybe my skin is extra vulnerable from being stretch over these implants but it feels so tender to the touch. My surgical bra seems to be rubbing them raw. So I bought some very emollient vitamin e cream and just slathered them this evening after showering. Maybe if I keep a nice protective layer over the skin, it will have a chance to heal.

Back to accomplishing so much though. I think I've been over doing it. I'm trying to keeping up on my rowing excercises that I was instructed to do every 30 minutes by Dr Yates nurse, Tanya. It's possible I've been rowing too aggressively are stretching to much in my impatience to speed things along? I'm so happy to have these beautiful new breasts that I don't want to mess anything up.

I do want to get back to my regular yoga practice though. I know I'm losing shoulder strength and my bum gets all it's perk from yoga. Maybe I can yoga from the waist down? Or barre?

Ooh! I have to share something that made me so happy this evening. Before surgery I measured my hips at 35.5" and my bust at 33". I remember think how cool it would be if my new boobs would match my hips. You know, like the old school, hour glass pin-up girls. Well, they measure exactly 35.5"! It's the little things, ladies.
